# Loader crashing after a few seconds

1. Go to the **Control Panel**.
2. Click **Network and Internet** > **Network and Sharing Center** > **Change adapter settings**.
3. Select the connection for which you want to configure Google Public DNS. For example:

   * To change the settings for an Ethernet connection, right-click the Ethernet interface and select **Properties**.
   * To change the settings for a wireless connection, right-click the Wi-Fi interface and select **Properties**.

   If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
4. Select the **Networking** tab. Under **This connection uses the following items**, select **Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)** or **Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)** and then click **Properties**.
5. Click **Advanced** and select the **DNS** tab. If there are any DNS server IP addresses listed there, write them down for future reference, and remove them from this window.
6. Click **OK**.
7. Select **Use the following DNS server addresses**. If there are any IP addresses listed in the **Preferred DNS server** or **Alternate DNS server**, write them down for future reference.
8. Replace those addresses with the IP addresses of the Google DNS servers:
   * For IPv4: `8.8.8.8` and/or `8.8.4.4`.
   * For IPv6: `2001:4860:4860::8888` and/or `2001:4860:4860::8844`.
   * For IPv6-only: you can use [Google Public DNS64](https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/dns64) *instead of* the IPv6 addresses in the previous point.
9. Test that your setup is working correctly; see [Test your new settings](https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using#testing).
10. Repeat the procedure for additional network connections you want to change.
